I Can’t Get No Sleep

“And here we are, half past two in the morning. I can’t get no sleep”

A slight mangling of the lyrics to the Faithless classic, Insomnia, as Maxi Jazz lamented about being wide awake at 3.30 AM whereas I am most definitely awake an hour earlier. And not for the first time either.

This is what happens when I wake up and thoughts for my next location talk starts fizzing in my mind, unbidden. Sometimes the only solution is to get up, set them down on paper and head back to bed.

“I’m wide awake in my kitchen, it’s black and I’m lonely, oh, if I could only get some sleep, creaky noises make my skin creep, I need to get some sleep, I can’t get no sleep …”

Insomnia. Again.

Here we go again. I’m not entirely sure which is worse; being wide awake and up at 4.00 AM or deciding to write a blog post about it.

And not the track by Faithless either. 3.21 AM in Teddington and no one else seems to be awake.

“I can’t get no sleep …”
